This amendment is issued to address the following questions received by the District:
1. What type of piping is required for the Compressed Air Piping?
Copper as noted on MP1.0 - Plumbing Piping.
2. What scope is required of the existing Hot Water Heater? It does not apper to be installed per code.
Will be relocated/Moved to above the Utility sink. See Delta 1 Addendum No. 2 drawings.
3. What scope is required of the existing Drinking Fountain? Remove for Eye Wash? Replace?
Existing drinking fountain to remain - Emergency Eye Wash modifeid in Delta 1 Addendum No. 2 drawings.
4. There does not appear to be Hot Water piped to the restroom lav as noted on the plumbing drawings? Where should hot water supply for the Eye Wash be pulled from?
See scope revision in Delta 1 Addendum no. 2 drawings for relocation of existing hot water heater
5. Plumbing drawings indicate the 3/4" drain line from the evaporative coolers is to terminate at the existing mop sink. There is no mop sink the JC/Storage Closet.
See scope revision in Delta 1 Addendum no. 2 drawings to route drainline to exterior landscape are, East of the building.
6. Where is waste line for Eye Wash?
See scope revision in Delta 1 Addendum no. 2 drawings to modify P1 Eye Wash to Guardian #G5026 Drench Hose syle eyewash wall mounted above existing utility sink.
7. The center portion of the existing building where the existing acoustical ceiling is scheduled to be demoed. Above this ceiling is a hard lid attached to the bottom of structure. Is this hard lid to be removed in its entirety or leave in place except for what’s required to be removed for the added structural components?
Intent is to leave in place except for what is required for added structural components.
8. I don't think I have ever heard GL called Public Liability. I would assume they are referencing general liability but as this is part of a contract I would caution against assuming and ask them to clarify. Technically Public Liability covers 3rd party only whereas GL is much broader. I strongly recommend getting clarification. Your policy is most likely sufficient but I would want to make sure everyone is on the same page as to what they are asking for.
The differentiation noted is correct and vendors should provide General Liability insurance at the limits noted.
9. Is there a soils report for this project?

There is no existing soils report. Foundation Design based on the following: 2018 IBC Table 1806.2: 1,500 PSF VERTICAL BEARING PRESSURE. BOTTOM OF FOOTING 1'-6" MIN BELOW LOWEST ADJACENT GRADE.
10. Sheet A5.1 detail 3 calls for masonry sealer. What type are you looking for?
Specifications on G1.2 indicate for Exterior Masonry: "seal with one coat Prosoco pre-mixed Siloxane PD, or equal"
11. The architectural plans call for a 6” slab. The structural notes sheet S0.1 call for a 4” slab. Please clarify
General Structural notes indicate a 4" Aggregate Base Course below the floor slab. Architectureal matches Structural Keynote 1 on S1.1 indicating a 6" thick slab over 4" base course.
12. Regarding Vendor Registration, if company is registered with Arizona Purchasing (which is how we were notified of this solicitation) are we considered registered?
Yes.
13. If Alt. #1 is the provision and installation of the heaters by the mechanical contractor, does the installation of conduit, wire and disconnect by the electrical contractor fall under base bid and the final connection of the unit fall under Alt. #1?
Yes; Base Bid will include the installation of conduit, wire and disconnect, with the finall connection of the unit heaters under Add Alt. No. 1.
14. Sheet D2.1 Keynote 008 - States to remove existing ceiling grid, panels and lights. During our site inspection we discovered existing drywall at the bottom of the deck (above grid) with the existing electrical conduit, j-boxes etc surface mounted to the drywall. Sheet A2.1 Detail 2 states we are to install new GWB at ceiling. Is the old drywall is to be removed? If not, please clarify how the new ceiling is to be put back. I attached a couple pictures showing the condition above the ceiling grid.
Intent is to leave existing gwb in place except for what is required for added structural components. It is assumed that the existing drywall is attached to furring strips running from joist to joist. Match existing for any locations of GWB removal and replacement.
15. Sheet E2.1 Note 1 – Is it safe to assume we should figure TEP SR 308 installation for the new switchboard?
Yes, assume full coordination with TEP SR documentation.
16. Note 6 – calls out for L5-20R power reel. Do you have a manufacturer and a catalog number for these units?
Provide power reel equal to KH Industries RTF Series. See attached for cut sheet.
17. Note 7 – calls for junction box and conduit for an intercom system. Should we include a junction box with a 3/4” conduit stubbed to the sheet rock ceiling?

Page 3 of 3
Provide 1" C to above accessible ceiling per symbol legend on E0.1
18. Note 8 – calls for a dedicated #6 ground. Would a ¾” ground rod be acceptable?
Ground rod greater than or equal to 3/8" is acceptable.
19. Note 9 – calls for a recept for the 100 amp power feed to the Plasma Table. Can we get more information on the table so we can provide the correct housing?
See attached installation cut sheet for plasma table information.
20. Note 10 – calls for a disconnect for a compressor. Will the compressor come with a magnetic starter or do we need to include one?
The Air Compressor is an owner furnish item to be purchased at a future date. Specifics of that equipment are unknown.
21. The plans call out to install an owner provided transformer to refeed the existing single phase (residential type) service on the east end of the building. Does this existing service feed something other than the east end of the building ie: restrooms, storage, lighting etc? If so, would it be acceptable to pull the necessary circuits off of the new 800 amp service to feed this portion of the building in lieu of refeeding the single phase service? This is just a cost savings suggestion.
Provide pricing based on construction documents. Once contract is awarded, cost savings suggestions can be discussed.
22. Will the owner accept using #500MCM aluminum conductors in lieu of #300MCM copper conductors for secondary conductors? Another cost savings suggestion.
Provide pricing based on construction documents. Once contract is awarded, cost savings suggestions can be discussed.
23. Regarding Alternate to provide a price to provide electric heaters, should we figure the cost based on doing it during the construction of this project or would it be done at a later date?
Base Bid will include the installation of conduit, wire and disconnect, with the final connection of the unit heaters under Add Alt. No. 1. The installation would be during the construction of the project.
24. I see on the revised proposal form presented in Amendment #1 the incorrect calendar days to complete this project wasn’t corrected. It still states 30 days, then states liquidated damages of $100.00 per day for each calendar day not completed. Since we are signing this revised bid proposal form, can you please correct it and send out the corrected form in your plumbing Amendment that is forthcoming?
Revised bid form attached with the correct number of days.
Sealed bids are due to the Flowing Wells USD Business Office no later than 2:00 p.m. AZ time on Thursday, February 25, 2021.

KH Industries - Terms and Conditions of Sale1. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT. Except where otherwise provided in a written agreement duly executed by an authorized signatory of K & H Industries, Inc. (“KH”), all goods and services supplied by KH pursuant to the Confirmation of Order overleaf and these terms and conditions (the “Goods”) are provided subject to the details set out in the said Confirmation of Order and to the terms and conditions set forth herein. KH’s ACCEPTANCE OF AN ORDER IS EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON BUYER’S ASSENT TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, AND BUYER’S ACCEPTANCE OF GOODS HEREUNDER SHALL BE DEEMED AN ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. KH specifically rejects any terms and conditions in Buyer’s order or in any other document from Buyer that in any way conflict with, reduce or affect these terms and conditions.
2. PRICES. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all prices are quoted F.O.B. at KH’s premises in Hamburg, New York, USA. All price quotes by KH will remain valid for thirty (30) days. Thereafter, prices are subject to change without notice to Buyer. Typographic, clerical and manifest errors in any offer are subject to correction by KH at any time. The minimum billing per order is $100 plus freight charges, orders that do not meet this minimum will be subject to a $25 service charge.
3. PAYMENT TERMS. Payment for all Goods shall be made in U.S. funds and prior to shipment (either by cash, banker’s draft, cashier’s check, check drawn on good funds, telegraphic transfer or approved credit card) or, at the sole discretion of KH, C.O.D., unless Buyer has applied for and been granted a line of credit by KH, in which case purchases can be made up to approved credit limits with payment therefore due net 30 days. Late payments shall be charged interest at the rate of 1.5% per month. KH is entitled hereunder to delay shipment until payment monies have cleared (e.g. check has become final; credit card charge has been authorized). Credit terms are subject to change or withdrawal at any time at KH’s sole discretion, regardless of prior credit arrangements. KH reserves the right to require current financial information from any buyer with an open account as a condition of the continued extension of credit. Buyer shall promptly reimburse KH in respect of KH’s costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in the collection of any monies owed to KH by Buyer. For orders invoiced or shipped outside the United States, KH will require a confirmed, irrevocable letter of credit, payable at sight in United States funds, advised and payable on an acceptable US bank. Buyer shall be solely responsible for procuring any and all necessary export, import and/or other permits. Buyer’s order shall constitute a representation that Buyer is solvent, and KH is relying upon such representation. If KH at any time reasonably believes that the Buyer is insolvent or that the Buyer’s credit is impaired, Buyer shall be in material breach thereof and hereof and KH may, without liability to Buyer, withhold performance hereunder, change the payment terms and/or repossess Goods delivered.
4. ADDITIONAL COSTS & TAXES. All prices and quotations are exclusive of sales, use, excise, duty, VAT and all similar taxes and levies. All such charges shall be for the account of Buyer and, if not included in an original invoice, may be invoiced or added to Buyer’s credit card payment, if any, by KH at a later date.
5. CHANGES; CANCELLATION OF ORDER. If Buyer cancels or changes the order, or any part thereof, for any reason, Buyer agrees to pay cancellation charges for all costs incurred by KH due to such cancellation, including without limitation, costs incurred by KH in the design, development or manufacture of special, custom-made or custom-designed Goods, or Goods altered at the request of Buyer [plus related profit, as reasonably determined by KH.] The costs shall include commitments made by KH to third parties for labor or materials for use in completing such order. KH’s determination of cancellation charges shall be final and conclusive.
6. SHIPPING. Title in Goods and risk of loss or damage thereto shall pass to Buyer upon delivery thereof by KH to the carrier at FOB point. Goods shall be shipped in accordance with the information set out in the Confirmation of Order overleaf. Unless instructed otherwise by Buyer, KH may ship by any reasonable manner and routing. All shipping costs shall be for the account of Buyer. All shipments shall be insured for their full replacement value and all such insurance shall be for the account of Buyer. All orders are subject to KH’s current shipping and handling charges. KH shall not be liable or otherwise responsible for defaults or delays in delivery by carrier. Shipping dates set out on the Confirmation of Order are approximations only, subject to, inter alia, factory schedules and inventory. If any shipment of Goods is delayed due to any act or omission of Buyer, KH may charge Buyer reasonable storage fees in relation thereto, including without limitation, storage costs, insurance costs and cost of money. Unless otherwise agreed by KH in writing, KH, in its sole discretion, may make partial shipments of any order, for which pro rata payments shall be due and payable as indicated on the invoice issued pursuant thereto. KH reserves the right not to ship to Buyer if Buyer’s account is overdue.
7. ACCEPTANCE OF GOODS. Buyer acknowledges that it has a duty to inspect Goods immediately upon receipt. Goods will be deemed accepted by Buyer unless notice of lawful rejection has been delivered in writing to KH within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof. Any
notice of shortage must be delivered in writing to KH within three (3) business days after receipt thereof by Buyer. Any notice of damage to Goods must be delivered in writing to KH and the relevant carrier within three (3) business days after receipt thereof by Buyer. Authorization from KH must be received by Buyer in writing prior to the return of any Goods by Buyer hereunder, and Buyer shall be solely responsible for adequate packing and pre-payment of freight with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, KH shall not be obligated to accept any unauthorized return of Goods, any Goods inadequately packed or Goods for which freight has not been fully pre-paid by Buyer.
8. RETURNED GOODS. KH may, at its sole option, agree to accept unused and merchantable Goods from Buyer, subject always to a re-stocking charge of 20%. Buyer agrees that it shall not return any Goods prior to receiving written authorization from KH so to do. Any and all returned Goods shall be shipped freight pre-paid and risk of damage or loss shall remain vested in Buyer until the relevant Goods are received, inspected and accepted by KH. For the avoidance of doubt, KH is not obligated to accept any returned Goods pursuant to this paragraph. Custom manufactured Goods are non-cancelable/non-returnable.
9. RE-CONDITION & REPAIR. Before shipping any Goods to KH for repair, Buyer shall contact KH for Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) and shipping instructions. With respect to any repairs by KH, Buyer shall be solely responsible for payment of freight charges, replacement parts, and labor costs at KH’s then current prices. Any repairs to any of the Goods performed by Buyer or by third parties [pre-approved by KH] shall be carried out in strict accordance with the applicable repair manual(s), if any, published by KH from time to time.
10. LIMITED WARRANTY; EXCLUSION OF OTHER WARRANTIES; LIMITATION OF REMEDIES; INDEMNITY. KH warrants the Goods to be free from defects of materials or workmanship, under normal and proper use and service, for a warranty period of one (1) year from the date of shipment (as such date is shown in KH’s records)(the “Warranty Period”). If any of the Goods proves to be defective in any material respect within the Warranty Period, such defective Good(s) shall be promptly returned to KH, F.O.B. KH’s factory, shipping charges prepaid, by the Buyer, and if the same is determined by KH to be defective in any material respect and covered by the terms of the warranty provisions set forth in this Section 10, it will be replaced or repaired, at the exclusive election of KH, free of charge. If Buyer believes any of the Goods are defective in any material respect during the Warranty Period, Buyer shall immediately cease using such Good(s) and notify KH in writing of such non-conformity or defect, specifying in reasonable detail the nature thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, KH is not responsible for, and shall have no obligation to replace or repair any Goods which: (i) have been used, operated and/or installed other than in strict accordance with KH’s written instructions and/or policies, if any; (ii) have been installed, operated or used in an improper, abnormal or inappropriate manner, as reasonably determined by KH;, (iii) have been damaged due to the negligence of another party; (iv) have been damaged due to an accident, natural disaster, extreme weather, or other act of God; (v) have been serviced, repaired or altered by anyone other than KH or a third party approved by KH to service or repair the defective or damaged Goods, and provided further, that all such service, repair and alterations by approved third parties must be completed in accordance with the applicable repair manual(s) for the defected or damaged Good, if any; or (vi) have been used in a manner or for a purpose for which the Goods were not designed.No warranty is made with respect to any defects in the Goods due to plans or instructions supplied to KH by or for Buyer. THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 10 IS MADE AND ACCEPTED BY BUYER IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE GOODS, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 10 IS BUYER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DEFECTS OR DAMAGE TO THE GOODS, AND ALL OTHER REMEDIES ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, KH IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF THE GOODS, OR UNDER ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF USE; LOSS OF REVENUE; LOSS OF ACTUAL OR ANTICIPATED PROFITS (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS ON CONTRACTS); LOSS OF THE USE OF MONEY; LOSS OF ANTICIPATED SAVINGS; LOSS OF BUSINESS; LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY; LOSS OF GOODWILL; OR LOSS OF REPUTATION.

RTF SERIES CORD REEL MANUAL
2.0 Installation
2.1 Application Types2.1.1 Stretch Applications
2.1.1.1 The cable is suspended without any intermediate support. Stretch reels generally require a line pull equal to two times the weight of the cable, which allows approximately 10% sag at full extension. On long applications where sag cannot be tolerated, it is sometimes desirable to put supports at intervals
of 5 to 10 feet.
2.1.2 Lift Applications
2.1.2.1 The cable is lifted vertically in lift applications. The reel is normally designed to handle only the total weight of the cable. Some lift applications may require ball stops to control the length of cable to be retracted.
2.1.3 Drag Applications
2.1.3.1 The reel is mounted on a stationary object and is required to drag the cable over the surface to the reel. The cable is supported by the ground or some type of cable tray. A ball stop may be required.
2.1.4 Retrieve Applications2.1.4.1 The reel is Mounted on the moving object and winds up or pays out the cable as the machine approaches or moves away from the fixed end. Retrieve applications can be elevated up to 4 feet from the cable support surface.
2.2 Mounting2.2.1 Standard Mounting
2.2.1.1 The reel may be mounted by bolting the base to any flat surface which is structurally sound enough to support it and the forces of winding and unwinding the cable.
2.2.1.2 The spool drum must rotate on a level horizontal axis.
2.2.1.3 Position the guide arm so that cable payout is perpendicular to the face of cable roller guide. The total cable deflection should not exceed 15° to either side of the center line of the spool.
2.2.1.4 If deflection is constant to either side of the reel and operation is impaired re-mount the reel.
2.2.1.5 If the angle of deflection exceeds 15° a Pivot Base should be used, otherwise excessive cable wear and unreliable operation will result.
2.2.1.6 A safety chain or cable is recommended for all overhead installations. Attach the safety chain using the 0.39 hole provided in the base. (See figure 2.3 on Page 7)

RTF SERIES CORD REEL MANUAL
2.0 Installation
2.3 Roller Guide2.3.1 All RTF Series units are equipped with a roller guide. The function of the guide is to center the cable on the spool and to help the reel wrap cable more evenly.
2.3.2 The cable should not bear against either end of the spool during winding as this will tend to inhibit level winding of the cable.
2.3.3 The guide should be secured at the best of twelve possible positions so that a minimum change of direction occurs at the guide; otherwise, cable life will be reduced.
2.3.4 The guide is shipped installed on the reel. The guide must be aligned per application and secured prior to making any electrical connections.
2.3.4.1 Mount the roller guide to the reel over the entrance coupling on the frame. Secure using the provided 5/16-18 hex head cap screw, including the spring-type lock washer. Torque this screw to 15 ft-lbs.
2.2.2 Pivot Base Mounting2.2.2.1 All RTF Series Cable Reels can be furnished with a pivot base to allow the reel to rotate and keep the extended cable perpendicular to the application.
2.2.2.2 The PVB Pivot Base has the ability to rotate up to 345°. Travel can be limited to 90°, 180°, or 270° by installing an additional roll pin in the appropriate available hole. This Pivot Base is not suitable for applications requiring continuous rotation.
2.2.2.3 A pivot base is required in carousel or loop-track applications.
2.2.2.4 When a pivot base is used, the reel must be mounted horizontally (“ceiling” or “floor” mounted).
2.2.2.5 The Roller Guide should be mounted so the cable will travel perpendicular to the axis of rotation. This will guard against the cable twisting and ensure effective swivel action from the pivot base.
2.2.2.6 Selection of mounting holes should be such that the spool center is in line with the center point of the pivot base.

2.4 RATCHET2.4.1 Ratchet Lock
2.4.1.1 The ratchet lock can be engaged or disengaged, depending upon the application.
2.4.2 Operation with Ratchet
2.4.2.1 The ratchet pawl is spring loaded. It is designed to function in all acceptable mounting configurations.
2.4.2.2 A slight pull on cable will disengage the ratchet.
2.4.3 Operation without Ratchet
2.4.3.1 Disengage the ratchet by pivoting the lock-out bar to the lower position. This will remove the ratchet pawl from the path of the ratchet plate. Locate the dimple on the lock-out bar in the hole provided.
2.4.3.2 WARNING: Do not engage the ratchet abruptly. Sudden engagement may cause excessive shock loads to the ratchet pawl.
2.5 Cable Installation 2.5.1 Either of two methods for installing cable on the reel may be used. The first method is to simply lay the cable out straight along the path of travel and wrap onto the reel. The second method requires using a support for the cable being wrapped (see Figure 2, page 9). In either method, it is important that the cable not twist or loop.
2.5.2 Remove the (6) nuts securing the slip ring cover. Remove cover and gasket. Reinstall (2) nuts finger tight to hold the flange in place.
2.5.3 Loosen the set screw (1/8” Allen Wrench) at the base of the slip ring stack and remove the slip ring.
2.5.4 Strip the cable jacket back approximately 10” from end of cable and thread it through the cable entrance watertight into the drum of the reel. We recommend a cable-tie on 16 AWG, 2 and 3 conductor cable (see Figure 1 on page 9).
2.5.5 Install the rubber grommet, gripper ring, and the watertight nut. Tighten the nut to secure the cable.
2.5.6 Extend the conductors out of the drum. Reinstall the slip ring stack, being sure to engage the drive pin making sure point of set screw engages 1 of the 2 holes on the shaft and tighten the set screw. On 6” deep spool drums, we recommend connecting the 1-6 leads to the brush post terminal before installing the ring on the shaft. (See Sections 4.4 and 4.5)
2.5.7 Strip and insert cable leads into the appropriate brush
post terminals and torque screws to 5in-lbs. (See page 9 for Color Code Chart used by factory. Figure 3 illustrates Slip Rings, and Figure 3a illustrates Welding Rings.) All weld cable lead ends should be tinned for optimal performance (Fig. 3A)
2.5.8 CAUTION: The green conductor MUST be connected to (GND) Ring (ring closest to the brush post base) in order to ground the reel. Be sure that the bottom brush (dedicated ground) and the green wire at the top terminal block have continuity. (On Welding Reels, all conductor welding cable ends require tinning per NEC.)
2.5.9 Perform a continuity check to verify circuits.
2.5.10 Replace the cover gasket if damaged.
2.5.11 Remove (2) nuts. Install gasket and cover. Re-install and tighten nuts (6).
2.5.12 Wrap new cable on drum spool.
2.5.13 Adjust spring tension by following the procedure in Section 2.6.

2.6 Spring Tension Adjustment2.6.1 WARNING: Do not allow cable to retract without
restraining the retraction speed. Walk the cable back to the reel during the spring tension adjusting process. Always maintain two full cable wraps on drum at maximum cable extension, size cable length accordingly.
2.6.2 To assure that the cable will retract properly and operate under the correct tension, the reel should be tested. Install cable on drum but do not connect the free end of cable. Securely mount reel before testing.
2.6.3 Pull the cable out the intended travel distance and allow it to rewind. This procedure should be repeated five (5) to ten (10) times in order to set the spring. Walk the cable back to the reel during the spring tension adjusting process.
2.6.4 With all the cable wound on the reel, grasp the end of
the cable and rotate the drum and cable together in a clockwise direction in order to pre-tension the spring. The number of pre-tension turns is determined by cable size and footage. Usually, two to three turns is sufficient, but additional turns may be used if testing indicates that the cable will not fully retract as desired with just two turns (see Note 2.6.5).
2.6.5 Feed the end of the cable through the cable guide and pull the cable out the required length. Note: Total number of spool revolutions, including pre-tension turns, must not exceed the limits in the following table:
2.6.6 Repeat steps 2.6.3 to 2.6.5, if necessary, to add tension.
To decrease tension, rotate drum and cable counter-clockwise.

To uncrate your new Torchmate 4400/4800/4510, pry the top of the crate off or remove the ghost frame, remove the sides and set it aside. Remove the shrink wrap and inspect the machine for damage. If damaged, do not accept the shipment!
Upon acceptance of the shipment, cut the plastic straps holding the plasma power supply to the crate. The plasma power supply weighs (75 lbs+) and requires a team lift to move it. Set the plasma power supply aside until final machine placement.
A forklift is required to place the machine in its operational position. Do not lift the machine from the gantry or cable carrier side. Place forks in locations marked “fork here” being careful not to hit the motion controller with the forks. Once the machine is in position level the table using the adjustable feet. It is required to utilized extended forks (60" or greater) to unload and maneuver the 4510. Make sure the table does not rock. Torchmate 4x00 models are shipped with factory
installed gantry locks. The yellow locking devices must be removed before the machine can be made operational. DO NOT replace the bolts after removing the yellow locking devices as this will cause irreversible damage to the gantry.
Do Not Fork Lift From Cable Carrier Side Of
Machine!
UNPACKING YOUR NEW MACHINE
When installing a Lincoln Electric CNC Cutting System in your shop, there are many factors that will influence the potential productivity, ease of use of the machine and the safety of the operator. The main factors to prepare for include: the physical layout and placement of the machine in the shop, the availability of power, an EMI ground, compressed air and other gasses, and ventilation.
Please Note:
• When preparing to install the Lincoln Electric CNC Cutting System, provide sufficient space. Three feet of work space (914 mm) should be obstacle free around the machine.
• Forklift load material opposite the cable carrier only. Utilize the back of the machine to park the gantry while loading material.
• A dedicated earth ground must be provided by the customer and installed per the National Electric Code, and in a location to reduce or eliminate a potential trip hazard, such as under the machine frame.
• The power lead included is limited to 10 feet.

The 4x00 machines require an earth ground rod to ensure personnel safety, and to supress the high-frequency noise created by the plasma power supply. A star ground point on the table will connect directly to the earth ground rod via a 6 AWG stranded wire or other stranded, grounding cable. Consult with a qualified electrician to verify your connections.
Step 1: Place the plasma unit into the appropriate location.
Re-install the power lead and the table ground into the front of the machine.
Step 2: The FlexCut plasma unit is shipped with a factory ground attached to the star ground. In addition, a work ground is attached to the star ground to connect to your material to be cut.
If the work piece is painted or dirty, it may be necessary to expose the bare metal to make a good electrical connection.
Please Note:
• Use 6 AWG stranded wire to connect the star ground on the table to the customer supplied dedicated earth ground.
• For proper operation of your CNC cutting tables you are required to run a 6 AWG cable from the “star” ground to a dedicated earth-ground rod.
• Ground rod installations are covered by NEC Section 250.• The earth ground is not included with the machine.
GROUNDING THE MACHINE
Please refer to the FlexCut operators manual for complete installation and operation guidelines. Only a qualified electrician should connect the input leads to the Torchmate 4400/4800/4510 CNC unit and FlexCut Plasma unit. Connections should be made in accordance with all local and national electrical codes. Failure to do so may result in bodily injury or death.
The 4x00 table has a single 120v NEMA 5-15P plug that powers the table and computer/monitor.
The FlexCut 80 is rated for 208 VAC through 575 VAC input voltages, single or three phase and 50 or 60 Hz. The FlexCut 125 is rated for 380 VAC through 575 VAC input voltage, three phase only and 50 or 60 Hz. Before connecting the machine to power, be sure the input supply voltage, phase and frequency all match those listed on the machine rating plate.
The FlexCut 80 automatically senses and adjusts to work with any input voltage, phase or frequency listed on the rating plate. No reconnect switch settings are required. The power supply cord is supplied without an attachment plug to accommodate single phase or three phase installations.
Warning:The FlexCut on/off switch is not intended as a service disconnect
for this equipment. Only a qualified electrician should
connect the input leads to the Torchmate 4400/4800/4510.
The Torchmate 4400/4800/4510 CNC machine requires clean, dry, oil-free compressed air or nitrogen. A high pressure regulator MUST be used with a compressor or high pressure cylinder.
Supply pressure must be between 87-110 psi (6-7.6 bar) with flow rated rates of at least 300 SCFH or 140 SLPM.
AIR SUPPLY PRESSURE SHOULD NEVER EXCEED 110 PSI OR DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE MAY OCCUR!
A standard nominal 5 micron in-line filter is recommended, but for optimal performance, select a pre-filter with a 3 micron absolute rating. Air must be supplied to the plasma with 3/8” inside diameter tubing and 1/4 NPT quick disconnect coupler. Air lines should be run as to not create a trip hazard. We recommend using the TMS-214-0000-00 approved air filtration assembly, available from www.torchmatestore.com
Water should be installed in the table pan before operation. Rust inhibitors such as non-sodium nitrite based products may be used as a corrosion inhibitor in CNC plasma water tables. Operators are encouraged to use Lincoln Electric® PlateGuardTM. Visit www.torchmatestore.com to purchase.Water Capacity • 4400 models hold approximately 60 gallons or 230 liters.• 4800 models hold approximately 107 gallons or 405 liters. • 4510 models hold approximately 140 gallons or 530 liters.
